Just after Brett and I recorded this week’s episode of the In the News podcast, I picked up my new iPhone 18 Pro Max from my local Apple Store. And shortly after that, the mail arrived with my new Apple Watch Series 12. We talk about both of those new products in the episode, as well as the new AirPods 5. But most of this episode is devoted to iOS 27. There are tons of small features that will make a big difference in your life. Plus, there is the one big feature: the vastly improved version of Siri that uses AI to be so much more helpful. There is so much new that it is a big overwhelming.
In our In the Know segment, Brett explains why moving app icons is better than ever in iOS 27—a feature that I haven’t seen covered much in the press, even though it is a great one. And I provide a Siri AI tip.
